Video #1 UN: Waltz

[Unlike some people whose biggest concerns are their inappropriate footwear, Cam is all business.

Speaking to you live from a crumbling room within the colony is a tall, bearded man wearing a suit. Or half of one. He has his sleeves rolled up, Prada jacket slung over an overturned desk. His face isn't unfriendly, but there are well-worn lines speaking to a serious nature.

This man does not wear flip-flops.]


Hello, my name is Cameron Waltz. Like you I am a recent arrival, and have more questions than answers regarding this place, and why we're here. Back home I was a humanitarian interpreter and cultural mediator specializing in foreign aid and disaster relief. Experience I hope will be useful, considering the conditions, as it appears we've found ourselves in something of a disaster.

In my brief exploration of the colony, it appears many of the necessary facilities are damaged and in disarray. Those few blocks that aren't already compromised will be well on their way if the problems regarding utilities and structural decay aren't addressed.

Especially since we appear to be activating potentially hazardous technology left and right. All it takes is one spark to set an electrical fire, or worse.

If we're going to survive here, it's important we work together to increase our chances. There are far too many repairs to complete alone. We need to survive before we can return home.

I don't know how many of you are out there, but if you can read this I would appreciate a response. A rough headcount would be helpful in terms of rationing supplies. People with engineering skills and knowledge relevant to repairing or securing the colony, please name yourself and what you can do.

A directory of skills could be incredibly helpful in terms of creating working teams to get things done.

To everyone who may be out there, you are not alone. If you are hurt, or simply don't know what to do, I and many others will be here to help.

[A man can hope.]

I want to see you, face to face.

I picked up like, the very basics in school? But uh, most of what I know is self taught. And I know a lot, just. Y'know. For the record. I know I don't look like much, but this is definitely something that I can handle.

So you're saying I shouldn't push this button that says "Open Airlock"?

Next you're gonna tell me I can't kill anyone or see what happens if we blow up some of this junk.

I can fix things. Nothing here is like anything I've seen, but I'll learn. I've already fixed one of the external sensors. With help.

[ Another tired, laugh-like sound, though there's at least a little amusement in this one. ]

No, it's. I'm. It's-- [ When did he become incapable of saying the word fine? ]

I should be used to this. The you I met--he was probably another version of you. Or you from later in your life.

[ He massages the bridge of his nose. ] I swear I'm not crazy.

I've never taught anybody before, but I can try. Maybe I could put together an informational packet? Just the highlights, situations that are likely to be relevant here.

Not exactly. But there are similarities.


[ Ben's not offering any more than that. ]

Mechanical skills.

[ Nate repeats helpfully, hoping that a smile can assist in the reassurance he is trying his best to give. Making half-decent first impressions all over again, as excruciating as it is, will apparently be consuming much of his time over the next week or so. ]

I've got some, but I usually lean more toward climbing, uh- and salvage work. I've got a lot of experience testing structural integrity.

[ As it were. ]

[What a super cool, supportive old dude!! Peter likes him immediately.]

A formal education is definitely a good first step, for sure, but it just wasn't keeping up with me, y'know? After a while you just kinda stop getting anything out of it. Easy A's, though, can't complain about that.

[There's a bit of an awkward pause before Peter continues,]

But um, yeah. Not trying to brag or anything, but I can definitely back it up.
